  • Home Theater Experience: Spy Game (2001)
    Oct 3 2025
    THANK YOU for PUSHING PLAYRedford Revisited, Tron Recharged, and Why Discs Still Rule: A Push‑Play Packed WeekHey Home Theatre Nerds! Have you heard the phrase: ‘all good things to those who wait’? Well, we’ve made you wait & we have LOADS of good things for you…Enjoy!!Lets get into ALL our Home Theater Experiences!So much fun!“If you can’t laugh while talking Home Theater, you’re doing something wrong.”Right?Push Play and hear for yourself.They're back with a laid‑back, laugh‑filled catch‑up that turns into a packed home theater rundown. Steve and DJ open with life and schedule hiccups, then riff on hockey injuries, uni ice hockey, rugby war stories, and an ill‑advised culinary debate about chocolate‑covered bacon. From there, they dive into gear: DJ unveils his new equipment rack build, wiring and power upgrades, and why smaller rooms can still deliver reference‑level thrills without rattling the whole house. Then it’s wall‑to‑wall home theater talk—Stephen King’s The Long Walk (must‑watch, brutal, and surprisingly great theatrically), a Tron double feature that shines in HDR with killer light‑cycle sequences, and a heartfelt Robert Redford tribute spanning Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, The Natural (4K/Atmos is a revelation), The Last Castle, and an overlooked demo gem: Spy Game (reference‑grade surround activity and dynamics). They also revisit 28 Years Later on disc (wider 2.70:1, auteur styling, and stronger Atmos than streaming) and close with The Amateur (smarter, grounded thriller vibes) and Warfare on 4K disc—proving again why physical media still outperforms streams in depth, dynamics, and slam.Chat highlights include new 4K arrivals (Tron, Casper), disc vs. streaming realities, favorite Tony Scott moments, and the importance of this community as a weekly safe space. Whether you’re chasing bass sweeps, debating aspect ratios, or just here for the vibes, there’s plenty to push play on this week.🍿CHAPTERS🍿1. (00:00:00) Late start banter and missing last week2.

  • Home Theater Experience: Ballerina: From the World of John Wick 4K
    Sep 19 2025
    THANK YOU for PUSHING PLAYFlamethrowers, Light Cycles, and Audio Gore: This Week in Home TheaterThis week, hear 2 fifty-something men swoon over a ship’s captain with a blonde pony tail, and then run for cover from a redhead in a chain mail bikini!! Plus, all the usual awesome HT fun and frolics!!Enjoy!!Lets get into ALL our Home Theater Experiences!So much fun!“If you can’t laugh while talking Home Theater, you’re doing something wrong.”Right?Push Play and hear for yourself.In this week’s episode, Steve and DJ kick off with a lively chat about physical media pricing and the 4K disc market trends in the US and UK before diving into a full slate of home theater reviews. From a nuanced take on Master and Commander’s new 4K Atmos release (gorgeous video, refined immersion, lighter-than-expected bass), to a fun, neon-drenched romp with Ballerina (a John Wick-verse blast with spectacular flamethrower demo scenes), they cover the full spectrum. The guys also hit on Nobody 2’s punchy, comedic action, and a brutally effective horror showcase with Weapons—featuring standout audio design, gnarly detail, and a room-filling, overhead musical soundscape. Capping it off, they celebrate Tron’s brand-new 4K Dolby Vision/Atmos transfer as a push‑play showcase for HDR contrast and era-authentic visuals that feel newly electrified in the home theater. Not everything was a winner—Red Sonja (2025) gets a rare thumbs down across acting, writing, CG, and audio—but that only sharpened the contrast with the week’s highlights. Along the way, Steve and DJ reminisce about Robert Redford, chat international listening stats, and share a quick project update about DJ’s work truck makeover. If you’re looking for reference-grade moments and crowd-pleasing demo material, Ballerina’s flamethrowers, Weapons’ surgical sound design, and Tron’s striking HDR are must‑queue picks for your next movie night.🍿CHAPTERS🍿1.
